Please bring all W2’s and Social Security Cards for any children or dependents you are claiming. This service is by appointment only.

The program will take place every Tuesday starting on February 3rd up until April 14th during the times of 9:00am – 11:15am. To schedule an appointment, please call USC Union’s Founders House office at (864) 424-8042.

The Union
Carnegie
Library
offers a
great way to
find and
reserve
books from
the comfort
of your own
home. SC
LENDS, the
library’s
circulation
system,
offers a
searchable
catalog,
available
through the
library’s
website (www.unionlibrary.org).
Once you
find a book
you are
interested
in, you can
place the
book on hold
online. You
will receive
a call when
the book you
have placed
on hold
arrives
(typically
3-5 business
days or
later) and
you only
have to make
one trip to
the library.
To place
books on
hold online,
all you need
is your
library card
number and
PIN/password
for your
library. If
you don’t
know your
PIN, simply
call the
library
(864)427-7140
and you can
have a new
PIN
created.
Once you
access your
account
using that
PIN, you can
then change
it to any
password you
would like.
While in
your
account, you
can also
check on the
status of
your account
or follow-up
on any
previous
holds you
have
placed.
Additionally,
you can
create lists
of books you
are
interested
in reading
in the
future, or
you can
begin a list
of books you
have checked
out (to do
so, simply
choose
“Account
Preferences”
and “Search
and History
Preferences,”
then check
“Keep
history of
checked out
items”- a
list of
items
checked out
will be kept
beginning
when you
choose that
option).
Please note,
when you log
in the
library
setting will
be “Union
County
Carnegie
Library”.
If you don’t
find your
book at our
library,
change the
library
setting from
the drop
down menu to
“SCLENDS”
which will
show books
available in
any of our
consortium
libraries.

www.unionsc.com and click on Community Calendar or Upcoming Events.

You will see a month at a glance on the Community Calendar page and a chronological listing on the Upcoming Events page.

You can cross reference dates and make sure your event doesn’t conflict with others already scheduled.
You can look at the previous months and year to see how events were scheduled in the past.
This is a great tool for you to use when planning for the coming year.

We are contacting you and hundreds of others in Union County who place their events on calendars at the Art Council, Clemson Extension, The Chamber, Union County Schools, WBCU, The Union Daily Times and other places.

The Chamber Community Calendar is not to take the place of the others but to provide a central location where all events can merge.

There are three ways for you and your organization to put an event on the Community Calendar.

1.Go to
www.unionsc.com and at the bottom of the home page you will see
Community Calendar Submission
